Yep there is no difference. They are just different ways of saying 1/5. Each sentence means the same thing no matter which way you say it. "One out of five page views in the US occurs on Facebook" or "One in five page views in the US occurs on Facebook" or "One fifth of page views in the US occurs on Facebook." I hope this explained it more. 좋은 하루 되세요! :)
